Officials at Grand Canyon National Park say a Virginia man died Saturday while hiking in the backcountry.
According to the park, 55-year-old Ranjith Varma of Manassas, Virginia was attempting to hike from the South Rim to the North Rim in one day when he became unresponsive on the North Kaibab Trail about a mile south of Cottonwood Campground.
Bystanders began CPR and called search and rescue personnel who responded via helicopter, which had to perform specialized maneuvers.
Their attempts to resuscitate Varma weren’t successful, however.
Officials say temperatures on the canyon’s inner trails can reach 120 degrees during the summer and they urge people not to hike during the heat of the day.
Assistance can also be delayed because of limited staff, the number of rescue calls, employee safety and curtailed helicopter capability during extreme heat or inclement weather.
The National Park Service and Coconino County Medical Examiner are conducting an investigation.
It’s the second potentially heat-related death this year in the Grand Canyon. In July a 57-year-old woman died while attempting to an eight-mile hike in the remote Tuweep area of the park.
The “jab”, it is not a vaccine, forces your cells to produce a toxic Covid spike protein. Why anyone would want their cells producing a Covid spike protein is beyond me. You were very wise not to take the “jab”. I looked into it but once I realized what is was going to do to my body I decided not “no” but “hell no”.
Individuals react differently to those who continue to shed “spike proteins”. But researching this and getting back meaningful results is difficult because this type of info is still being actively suppressed by various means especially by the large big tech providers who control much of what we can find on the internet. Here is just one more example from an article written this morning.
Thanks, good info, but sadly it is behind a pay wall so I can’t read it.
I knew about the shedding but never considered it much of a problem. I might look into that.
Sorry about that, I do subscribe to the Epoch Times and did not realize this was one of their paywalled stories....

Threads Blocks Search Results for ‘COVID’ and ‘Vaccines,’ Upsetting Users
Meta’s alternative to Elon Musk’s X is blocking searches related to COVID, vaccines, and other sensitive topics, as COVID cases are on the rise.
Threads, Meta’s recent competitor to Twitter, is facing harsh criticism for blocking search results for terms related to the pandemic, including vaccines.
The new text platform, which is linked to Instagram, rolled out its new search function last week, a major step towards giving it more parity with X, formerly known as Twitter.
After Threads’ July release, Meta has been rolling out several much needed updates in recent weeks, including a requested desktop version and user search functionality.
However, within 24 hours of the recent update, the social media giant was hit with controversy, as the new search function proved useless for those wanting to look for posts related to the COVID-19, reported The Washington Post.
Many users were upset when their search on Threads for content related to “COVID” and “vaccines” was met with a blank screen and a pop-up redirecting them to the website of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“Zuck treats users like children. He gets to decide what they will see and talk about. This is reason alone enough to reject Threads and embrace X,” said Michael Robertson, a tech CEO, in a post on X.
Meta confirmed its search policy restrictions in a press statement, saying that the text platform is blocking users from searching for words that could bring up “sensitive” posts, for now.
